So mixed up, so sad...I keep reading everything I can find to overcome depression and anxiety, it all makes sense but how do I bring myself to do those things when I have trouble getting out of bed????
I love this forum because it makes me feel I am not alone but often when I read the posts I can identify so much it hurts..I feel for all of you and I wish that we could all get up tomorrow and be happy and so-called normal but I have realized it does take time, just dont know if I have the patience and the courage it takes..
As usual, dont know if any of ths makes sense, all I know is I cannot function anymore...going to see my therapist tomorrow, I like her and feel a connection but I just dont know how much it can help.
One day at a time is way too long these days, one hour is all I can handle.
Enough ranting and raving from me

You aren't ranting....You're feeling...it's ok.
One day at a time and baby steps....Don't be so hard on yourself. Healing of any kind takes time. It's so darned exhausting, though.
Can you try a different med? I know it took a lot of trial and error to find something that remotely worked for me.
Patience is hard to do when you feel depressed, but courage....you have that. I believe we all do, otherwise we wouldn't be here. Take good care of yourself, please.
